Paul Scanlon

Well hey there! 👋 I'm Paul and a long long time ago I was a designer but after a few years of pixel pushing I realised code is just better! I’ve held various positions in and around advertising and web development in both permanent and contract positions since 2005, and I once co-founded and ran an award winning digital production agency called Super natural based in London.
